My mom always made this chicken dish on Christmas and whenever people got together. She gave me a pressure cooker so I tried to mimic her cooking.

I asked my mom for this recipe but she didn't have the exact amounts for the ingredients. So I got this through trial and error. Taste and adjust the amount of soy sauce to your liking. Recipe by Kazapi-

Steps

1

Slice the garlic and onions. I used one onion this time but it's better if you use two, as the sweetness comes from the onions.
2

Spread 2/3 of the sliced onion mixture on the bottom of a pressure cooker and place the chicken on top and layer on the rest of the onion slices. Add 2/3 of the soy sauce and other ☆ marked ingredients.
3

Secure the lid and bring up to pressure. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook it for 20 minutes. Allow the pressure to drop by just turning off the burner and letting it cool down naturally.
4

Remove the lid and turn on the heat. Thicken the sauce, basting the chicken with the sauce occasionally. Add the remaining 1/3 of the soy sauce if needed.
5

If you have time, prepare the chicken until Step 3 the day before and let the chicken absorb the flavor overnight. Then reduce the sauce, adjusting the seasoning on the day of eating.
6

I use the Fissler Royal 6L type of pressure cooker. If you are cooking with a regular pot or clay pot, add more water and spread more onions underneath the chicken.
7

Use the left over sauce to cook vegetables. It's tasty. (I cooked potatoes this time.)
